Eden

It's been said it was in Eden, and that it was love at first sight
But I knew that when I saw you that the story wasn't right

I didn't bite the apple and I didn't part the sea
But when I saw you I gave up a part of me

You brought me to my knees and made me understand
And when the world was flooding you pulled me onto land

I stood at your mercy and you stood so righteously
You taught me to be humble as you pulled an apple from the tree

I never understood it as I was hungry too
But as you bite the skin my sins were all on you

The sun came up again and the sea it parted ways
And two by two they left the ark in the longest seven days

You inspired my existence and then left me with the core
My sins were all forgiven but I had nothing to live for

The world was under heel and we stood high above
You sacrificed yourself for me but sacrificed our love

Its been said it was in Eden, and that it was love at first sight
But I knew that when I saw you that the story wasn't right....
